It is The MFC that has to improve itself

Unfortunately for everyone involved at the MFC (even the fairweather members), this have proven to be all too hard on too many occasions.

    Complete nonsense PJ was on the front page re Jolimont Board/exec will deliver just has it has done with list mgt yes and Coaching Roos succession plan Goodwin top 4 one year drop off and we all dive for the bottom led by you well played btw have you asked the board or gone to an AGM and asked the question or do you just make this stuff up?

    Jolimont plan was niave, ill thought and should of been dismissed as soon as it was proposed. It showed how out of touch the Club is with its own historical neighborhood.

    I reckon Jolimont could still happen, just need to not be weak and dominate the pesky neighbourhood with teargas and riot shields. Remind the neighbourhood that it's tenants can relocate elsewhere if they want their dog to be able to take a [censored] in the park.

    Send the dogs off-leash to Yarra Park, Jolimont.

    The Flame Demon returns!   Is this the first time the Demon has officially made it onto any merchandise (other than the kiddy mascots)  since 2007??

    Yes a void unfilled imo OD.  Uncannily it's disappearance coinciding with all the rot that followed on and off the field

    I 'was' enjoying the current match OD.  Thanks!

    here's an idea, for every loss the players 'donate' 10% of their match fees, if they lose 2 in a row it becomes 20%, 3 & 30% etc.

    i suspect that would fix our lapses in performance pronto.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
